Mean balls

Fearsome plumage display from the cue toting Mr T

Perfect 75 hours of overtime reward

Ah the banter...

Its like a red rag to a ned bull.

Tea for two...

When you find yourself sharing a pot of tea on a friday night you know there is something terrible wrong with he world!

The best Valentine ever...

Combining black cats and love :0)

Just say no!

It all started off so innocently; a joint passed at a party, the odd pill in a club. But before Barbie knew it she was face down on the gutter having just shat herself.

20,000 leagues under the sea

The sea creatures in Shilla were fearsome indeed.

Clowns of the east

It was a hectic one in the 'burgh last night. Thanks to red troos for the giggles in the Burger place!

Glasgow protesters closed down

The police show the protestors that this ain't Egypt. Possibly an overreaction as they looked to be outnumbering the little guys two to one!

While the dawg's away....

Whilst I drag my weary slightly hungover self into work my rightful place in bed is stolen by madfoot. Is there no end to this ignominy.

Chilli beers before Neds

I love Wednesdays :0)

Neds!

Not only in the streets but in the theatres too!!

Scotch bonnet chilli powder

I am bursting with pride as I finalise my first jar of convenient, tasty and wicked hot Scotch bonnet chilli powder. Now selling at a fiver per hundred grams!

The drying game

A couple of Scotch bonnets dried and ready to grind. Happy days!

Dry Hard 2.0

It looks like a steamer but it be the very opposite. At this very moment 1.2 kilos of fierce drying gadgetry is squaring up to the bonnets. Of course the bonnets know no fear, long have they reigned unchallenged as the toughs of chilli lane. But there is a wind of change a comin!  Yikes I think I should get more sleep.

High drama at Maggie Mays!

Fodder for the dehydrator

Tomorrow my dehydrating machinations can begin! Why can't you buy dried bonnet flakes anywhere. Well soon you will.... mohohowahr!

No muy Bonita

Quote from the interview in the Metro

Didnt you nearly die on Everest?

I could have done. The lowest moment was having to ask for help. It's an incredibly dangerous environment but having to ask Sherpas to come from camp to help me down was the worst moment of my life. Asking them to put their own lives at risk to help me was heartbreaking -I thought I was better than that.

What happened?

I got a neck injury on the way down from the summit because of bad posture and carrying the backpack. My neck froze up, I couldn't move it and it became painful to walk. It was late in the day with bad weather. Thats when I had to call for help and radio the Sherpas.

Were you conscious?

Yes. there have been stories saying I was unconscious and close to death but I was awake through the whole thing and walked into camp that night.

I know it was for charity and all so I cannot slag her too much. This part just jumped out at me though, gdidnt she just get a bit of a sore neck? whats with the nearly dying nonsense? Poor little rich kid.

Out tech'd!!!!!

A horrifying case of being out tech'd by my chica. I feel slightly cheap and worthless now ;0) Who would have thought that an accidental phone dropping would have led to such shame!

Octopus soup, mmmmm!!

When on holiday I do like to get summat that looks a bit *ahem* colorful!
